Ingredients
  

4 slices of whole grain bread

4 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature

2 ripe peaches, pitted and sliced thinly

1/4 cup honey

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

1/4 cup walnuts, toasted and roughly chopped (optional)

1 tbsp butter, for grilling

A handful of fresh arugula (optional, for a peppery kick)

Instructions
 

Make the Cream Cheese Spread: In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, honey, and ground cinnamon. Use a hand mixer or a fork to blend the ingredients until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring the flavors are well incorporated.

    Assemble the Sandwiches: Take two slices of whole grain bread and generously spread the cream cheese mixture over one side of each slice. On top of the cream cheese, layer the freshly sliced peaches evenly. If using, sprinkle the toasted walnuts over the peaches for an added crunch. For an extra layer of flavor, add a handful of fresh arugula on top of the peaches.

      Complete the Sandwiches: Place the remaining two slices of bread on top of the filled slices, creating two sandwiches.

        Grill the Sandwiches: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once the butter is bubbling and has an irresistible aroma, carefully place the assembled sandwiches into the skillet. Cook the sandwiches for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread turns a perfect golden brown and crispy, and the cream cheese warms up and softens invitingly.

          Serve and Enjoy: Once grilled to perfection, remove the sandwiches from the skillet and allow them to cool slightly on a cutting board. With a sharp knife, slice each sandwich in half diagonally for easy handling and a delightful presentation. Serve immediately, and indulge in the warm, gooey goodness of your Peachy Cream Cheese Sandwich Melt!
